Chelsea delivered a stunning performance on Sunday night to defeat Paris Saint-Germain 3-0 and lift the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup trophy at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.

The Blues, under new manager Enzo Maresca, raced into the lead with a first-half brace from England international Cole Palmer. The in-form forward also turned provider, assisting new signing Joao Pedro for a sensational chipped goal that capped a dominant opening 45 minutes.

Despite a star-studded PSG squad and their recent UEFA Champions League triumph, the French champions struggled to respond. Chelsea maintained composure and control in the second half, with goalkeeper Robert Sanchez making several vital saves to preserve the clean sheet.

Frustration mounted for PSG late in the match when João Neves was shown a red card for unsporting behaviour after pulling Marc Cucurella’s hair, leaving the Ligue 1 side to finish the game with ten men.

The victory marks Chelsea’s first FIFA Club World Cup title since 2021 and signals a promising new era under Maresca’s leadership.
